Plumbing failures in Iplex/ Typlex pipes

Plumbing failures in Iplex/ Typlex pipes

Typlex pipes, manufactured by Iplex Australia Pty Ltd were installed in thousands of homes in WA between mid 2017 and mid 2022. Following a series of plumbing leaks with these pipes, the government has prepared an industry response.

There is more information about the government’s response on this website with further links and assistance within the information.

If you purchase a home which contains the pipes at risk of failure, you also have rights. These are explained in this document from the Department of Energy, Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety.

"Was really impressed with the report.

Completely personalized, and even though the owners were not obligated to find the minor issues sighted, was good for our own maintenance plans.

So quick and easy to deal with, and a great price. Would gladly use again."

"Best $$$ that we have ever spent!

Got Andrew out for a first inspection today on short notice and Andrew was amazing! Definitely knows his work and has an eye for detail (more than my OCD eyes!).

We have received nothing but high quality customer service from this company. Worth every cent! Highly recommend you get a building inspector out for a newly built home, even established !!"

"The report that Andrew furnished us with was very comprehensive and even provided some future maintenance tips.

It was far more comprehensive than the report the buyers got prepared for our old house."
